NOTE: If you apply this fix you do it at your OWN RISK! DO NOT request support from CodeWeavers as this version will be modified and this creates additional strain on their support resources. Please see this CodeWeaver's Product Manager's forum post: https://www.codeweavers.com/support/forums/general/?t=27;msg=257865
Quick video demonstrating that the Windows version of Overwatch 2 and other Unreal Engine 4 games now work on Mac through CrossOver using a patcher called CXPatcher. This was developed by developer iiiman, on top of the work from developer nas, with help from Gcenx. This makes dozens of Windows games that previously displayed black screen now playable on Mac for the first time.
There is currently an issue where when you die you might lose mouse focus, just Cmd+Tab and then click back into the game to regain mouse control.
